ON/OFF SWITCH
Place this switch (A) in the ON position to
G
A
J
provide automatic power to the pressure
switch and OFF to remove power at the
end of each use.
PRESSURE SWITCH
The pressure switch (J) automatically
starts the motor when the air tank pres-
sure drops below the factory set cut-in
pressure. It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the
factory set cut-out pressure.
PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE
The pressure release valve located on the side of the pressure switch,
is designed to automatically release compressed air from the compres-
sor head and the outlet tube when the air compressor reaches cut-out
pressure or is shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to
restart freely. When the motor stops running, air will be heard escaping
from this valve for a few seconds. No air should be heard leaking when
the motor is running or after the unit reaches cut-out pressure.
SAFETY VALVE
If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its
cut-out pressure setting, the safety valve (G) will protect against
high pressure by popping out at its factory set pressure (slightly
higher than the pressure switch cut-out setting).
CHECK VALVE
When the air compressor is operating, the check
F
valve (F) is open, allowing compressed air to enter
the air tank. When the air compressor reaches cut-
out pressure, the check valve closes, allowing air
pressure to remain inside the air tank.

connect plug on hose.
Lubrication and Oil
CAUTION: The compressor was shipped without oil in the
crankcase. A small amount of oil may be present in the pump
upon receipt of the air compressor. This is due to testing and does
not mean the pump contains oil. Do not attempt to operate this
air compressor without first adding oil to the crankcase. Serious
damage can result from even limited operation unless filled with
oil and broken in correctly. Closely follow Initial Set-up under
Operation.
CAUTION: Multi-viscosity motor oils, like 10W-30, should not be
used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits on critical
components, thus reducing performance and compressor life. Use
DeWALT synthetic oil only.
1. Place unit on a level surface.
K
2. Remove dipstick (K) and slowly add
DeWALT synthetic oil (supplied). NOTE: See
Specifications for pump oil capacity.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Overfilling
with oil will cause premature compressor failure.
Do not overfill.
3. Replace dipstick.
Grounding Instructions
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. In the event of a short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current. This air compressor must be properly
grounded.
The portable air compressor is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.
1. The cord set and plug (O) with this unit
P
O

English
Extension Cords
Using extension cords is not recommended. The use of extension
cords will cause voltage to drop resulting in power loss to the motor
and overheating.
Instead of using an extension cord, increase the working reach of
the air hose by attaching another length of hose to its end. Attach
additional lengths of hose as needed.
If an extension cord must be used, be sure it is:
a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and
a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product
in good condition
no longer than 50 feet (15,2 m)
12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge num
-
ber decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG may also be used. DO NOT
USE 14 OR 16 AWG.)
Voltage and Circuit Protection
Refer to the Voltage and Minimum Branch Circuit Requirements
under Specifications.
CAUTION: Certain air compressors can be operated on a
15 amp circuit if the following conditions are met.
Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the National Electrical
Code.
Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs.
Extension cords comply with specifications.
Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp
time delay fuse. NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit
protected by fuses, use only time delay fuses. Time delay fuses
should be marked “D” in Canada and “T in the US.
If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the
compressor repeatedly causes interruption of the power, it may be
necessary to operate it from a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary to
change the cord set.
Compatibility
Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be
compatible with petroleum-based products. If you suspect that a
material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter
for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required.
NOTE:
Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor
when spraying paint.
Location
Place the air compressor in a clean, dry and well ventilated area
at least 12"
(30.5 cm) away from the wall or other obstructions that
will interfere with the flow of air. Keep the compressor away from
areas that have dirt and/or volatile fumes in the atmosphere. These
impurities may clog the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient
operation.
The air compressor pump and shroud are designed to allow for
proper cooling. The ventilation openings on the compressor are
necessary to maintain proper operating temperature. Do not place
rags or other containers on or near these openings.
Place the air compressor on a flat surface resting on the rubber

* To check for air leaks apply a solution of soapy water around joints.
While compressor is pumping to pressure and after pressure cuts out,
look for air bubbles to form.
** The pump oil must be changed after the first 20 hours of operation.
Thereafter, when using
DeWALT
synthetic compressor oil, change oil
every 200 hours of operation or once a year, whichever comes first.
+ Perform more frequent in dusty or humid conditions
Checking Safety Valve (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head,
and surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot
Surfaces identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to
servicing.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work
properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or
an explosion.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to
make sure that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck
or does not operate smoothly, it must be replaced with the same
type of valve.
Checking Air Filter Element (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and
surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces
identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.
1. Ensure the On/Off switch (A) is in the OFF position.
2. Allow unit to cool.
3. Remove air filter (N) from unit.
4. Carefully pry filter top from base.
5. Remove element from filter base.
6. If element needs cleaning, blow out with air. Replace if needed.
Purchase replacement parts from your local dealer or authorized
service center. Always use identical replacement parts.
7. Place element back in filter base.
8. Snap filter top to filter base.
9. Reassemble air filter to unit. Ensure exhaust outlet points down.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Do not operate without air
inlet filter
Draining Air Tank (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Risk from noise. Air tanks
contain high pressure air. Keep face and other body parts away from
outlet of drain. Use safety glasses [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3)]
when draining as debris can be kicked up into face. Use ear protection
[ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)] as air flow noise is loud when draining.

NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensate that
accumulates in any drain point (e.g. tanks, filter, aftercoolers, dryers).
This condensate contains lubricating oil and/or substances which
may be regulated and must be disposed of in accordance with local,
state, and federal laws and regulations.
1. Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFF position
.
2. Move compressor into an inclined position so drain valve (H) is
at the lowest point (this will assist in removing moisture, dirt, etc.
from air tanks)
3. Place a suitable container under the drain valve to catch
discharge.
4. Grasp knurled knob on drain valve.
5. Slowly rotate knob to gradually bleed air from air tank.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Drain air tank daily. Water will con-
dense in air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the
air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Drain water from air tank may
contain oil and rust, which can cause stains.
6. When air tank pressure gauge reads 10 PSI (68,9 kPa), rotate
valve to the fully open position.
7. Close drain valve when finished.
Compressor Pump Oil (Fig. 1)
CHECKING OIL
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head,
and surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot
Surfaces identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to
servicing.
1. Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFF position
.
2. Place unit on a flat level surface.
3. Remove dipstick (K) and wipe clean.
4. Reinsert dipstick fully into oil fill port for a few
L
K
seconds to allow oil to collect on the dipstick.
5. Remove oil dipstick to read oil level. Oil should
not exceed top raised line on dipstick. If oil is
below lower mark, add DeWALT synthetic oil
and follow Steps 4 - 6.
NOTE: When filling the crankcase, the oil
flows very slowly into the pump. If the oil is
added too quickly, it will overflow and appear
to be full.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Overfilling with
oil will cause premature compressor failure. Do not
overfill.
6. Replace dipstick.
CHANGING OIL
NOTE:
Pump oil contains substances that are regulated
and must be disposed of in accordance with local,
state and federal laws and regulations.
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler,
pump head, and surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see
the Hot Surfaces identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior
to servicing.
1. Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFF position
.
2. Allow the unit to cool.
3. Remove air compressor plug from outlet.
4. Drain air tank.
5. Locate a suitable container under pump drain plug (L).
6. Remove the dipstick (K) from crankcase.

GLOSSARY
CFM: Cubic feet per minute.
SCFM:
Standard cubic feet per minute; a unit of measure of air delivery.
PSI:
Pounds per square inch; a unit of measure of pressure.
kPa (kilopascal):
Metric pressure measurement. 1 kilopascal equal 1000 pascals.
Code Certification: Products that bear one or more of the following marks: UL, CUL, ETL, CETL, have been evaluated by OSHA certified
independent safety laboratories and meet the applicable Underwriters Laboratories Standards for Safety.
Cut-In Pressure:
While the motor is off, air tank pressure drops when accessory is used. When the tank pressure drops to a certain low
level the motor will restart automatically. The low pressure at which the motor automatically restarts is called cut-in pressure.
Cut-Out Pressure:
When an air compressor is turned on and begins to run, air pressure in the air tank begins to build. It builds to a
certain high pressure before the motor automatically shuts off, protecting your air tank from pressure higher than its capacity. The
high pressure at which the motor shuts off is called cut-out pressure.
Branch Circuit: The circuit carrying electricity from electrical panel to outlet.
Duty Cycle: This air compressor pump is capable of running continuously. However, to prolong the life of your air compressor, it is
recommended that a 50%-75% average duty cycle be maintained; that is, the air compressor pump should not run more than 30-
45 minutes in any given hour.
